  2. Is there anyone in Plymouth with a female deans connector I can borrow? Going airsofting tomorrow, and need to solder up my spare battery.

  3. I bought a TV for a fiver, but no remote with it. If I get a universal remote control, do I have to program it to the TV, or does it 'just work'?

    1. KYOSHOKEV

      KYOSHOKEV

      you have to program it first there should be a list of tv`s on the package as to wich code you have to put in

      Just go on ebay and see if you can get the same remote for your tv you will prob get one for a couple of quid

      The correct remote is a £11, a universal one is £2. If it's just a code to punch in that's fine, I was having visions of having to point a remote at it and press buttons XD

      Well, apart from having a stupidly accurate memory, I boasted about it a bit, since it was such a great deal :D

      0.005p a day to run according to my maths. Well done!

  9. Yo, 1/8th peeps; how do your drive cups go onto your gearboxes? I need some cups for my project, but the Traxxas ones are £6.

    1. joe of loath

      joe of loath

      This is where I wish I hadn't gotten rid of that GS Storm :P

  10. If I were to extend the rubber exhaust outlet on the pipe of my 2.5r engine, would it affect the performance?

    1. landmaxdriver

      landmaxdriver

      the exhaust deflector?

    2. HATZY

      HATZY

      You can alter the timing of the exhaust port. By lengthening the exhaust you will retard the closure of the exhaust port which could have adverse effects on performance and make it use more fuel to compensate whats not bein burnt although tbh i doubt you would notice any difference what so ever. I would try it and see what happens

  11. Anyone got any of these lying around they'd want to sell me? http://www.modelsport.co.uk/traxxas inner drive cups for steel constant velocity driveshafts/rc-car-products/38099

      Trooper, that's not a 2t clutch bell, it used to be a 15t, but you're just not good enough with a screwdriver to set the mesh properly ;)

    4. eamo1978

      eamo1978

      i set the mesh with a piece of paper personally

  14. I need a 1/8 centre diff assembly... Would it be cheaper to build one from new parts, or buy a second hand roller and strip out the one in there?
